Seminar Details

What to Expect

Prior to the formula developed by Fischer Black and Myron Scholes, the financial world had no standard or accurate means to price stock options. This presentation covers the options pricing model and the inputs (Greeks) that help determine the price of calls and puts. Excel graphs have been incorporated into the presentation to help the student better visualize how each Greek in isolation contributes to the price of an option, and how simple strategies are affected by changes in these inputs. The seminar is recommended for experienced investors with an advanced understanding of both option and stock investing.
